Tubular Lock Saws
If picking is not possible, lock-outs of tubular key locks can still be serviced. These hole saws destroy the pins at the shear line. Hole saws are available for standard and oversize keyways. Saws will fit any 1/4" (6.35mm) electric drill. Saw life is approximately 3 openings. Not for use on locks with hardened pins or ball bearings in the keyway.
